Abstract

In this work we present a comprehensive analysis of the scattered signals from buried landmine-like targets via accurate numerical modeling of Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) responses considering various antenna-soil-target scenarios. Different characteristics in time and frequency domain are extracted and interpreted for each configuration. The acquired knowledge is useful to better understand the scattering mechanisms of subsurface objects and can be incorporated to target recognition procedures. A brief explanation of the results is also provided together with an overview of the most relevant temporal and spectral features encountered.
